West Ham will be spending Saturday night on the edge of heaven after picking up 3 points against a hardworking Posh side. The home team had certainly been expected the have the freedom on the pitch to give chief executive Karen Brady everything she wants. On paper the hammers were certainly stronger, last Christmas there was 2 divisions between these sides, but it didn’t show and instead we saw Posh, with their young guns, go for it.
The game was decided early in the first half when Lee Frecklington labelled Posh bad boys by pushing Henri Lansbury in the area. West Ham seemed unsure who would take the penalty before Mark Noble declared “I’m your man” and slotted the ball home. Much of the rest of the game was fruitless, several fans dropping off and asking neighbours to wake me up before the go go. Posh battled on but as one fan shouted “where did your heart go?”, wherever it went they’ll be lamenting a missed point in Club Tropicana tonight.
